Macadamia and Cheese Biscuits

These are easy to make, easy to bake and you can keep a raw mix in the freezer ready to bake. 
Would make an excellent gift for Xmas, but should be eaten with in 4 days.   I will test this out. 

Ingredients

1 cup of raw Macadamia nuts,( make sure they are fresh).
250 g sharp cheddar cheese, cubed
1 egg
1/2 cup plain flour
2 Tablespoons of Black Sesame seed, ( nigella seeds) optional. 

Method. 
Grind Nuts in TMX leaving a bit of texture, not paste. Set aside
Grind cheese until small crumbs with no large lumps. 
Return nuts to bowl and add egg and flour. 
Mix at speed 4 until mix comes together. Tip on to Silmat  and if very sticky, add a little more flour. 
Form into a flat oval disk about 2 cm thick, 7 to 10 cm wide. ( this will be the length of the biscuit. )

Remove from freezer, remove wrap and with a sharp knife cut thin strips off the dough. 
Sprinkle with Black Sesame seeds if desired.
